[ubuntu] DOD CAC problems

http://ubuntuforums.org –
i have installed all kinds of stuff for the freaking cac reader to include cackey and pcsc tools. my problem is when i put in my card or anybodys card and in terminal tryp pcsc_scan it tells me my card is unresponsive. and naturally if i try to log into my ako or anything that requires the cac it does not work. But if i got to another computer a work computer or the MWR computer it works fine. any ideas on how to fix this? i am running ubuntu 12.04 x86 on a toshiba satelitte laptop with a stanley global 111-6 usb cac reader

Hi, a while ago I was up-loading some photos to my computer via my computer's card reader. Unfortunately when I was finished I forgot to Rt. click & eject the card. The next time I tried to use the card reader it would no longer function. I once did this with an older vsn of Ubuntu and was able to restore the card reader by re-installing the operating system.

When I use the SD Card reader on my Acer v5-171-6867 running Ubuntu 14.04 I can only use it if I have a card inserted before I turn on my computer, other people seem to have a similar problem with either the same computer model or different computer models. So far I can't find any sort of real solution to this. Can anyone help?
